Ok, Here are the bell peppers that I’ve experimentally saved from the Spring garden. Usually, when the heat hits and they wilt, drop their flowers and stop producing fruit, I pull them up. This time I cut them back in July to help them survive the heat and just waited. Now, August 18th, they are reviving and starting to grow, and flower and I even have the beginnings of a couple of bells forming. I’m thinking the Garden Guru was right. So I fertilized them and water them well every morning. They do wilt in the heat of the afternoon, but survive they did. So, let’s see what they do in the fall and how long they last, since this part is all new to me. Who knows, maybe I’ll try this with tomatoes next summer. All kinds of possibilities are opening up to me. On the left are orange bells and on the right are yellow bells. Surprisingly, the yellow ones seem to be hardier. Hmmm.
